IN Woodland Cemetery, in this village, quite a number of the Monuments and Tombstones are, owing to the wet weather, settling and leaning, while some, have fallen entirely down.

For full particu­ lars call-on Mr. Mead. A MAN in Chicago is making shoes out of human Skin, which Are said to Wear longer, and are more comfortable than those made of ordinary leather. Of course the thicker the skin the better, aud consequently the bodies of those, persons who never pay their subscrip­ tions, and dodge their advertising bills are in great demand. Hence, the pom* overworked editor gets his revenge, if he don't get his money. NEVER tell an editor that you have "more papers than you can read." Just come out with the truth. Say you borrow the local paper of your neighbors. Say that you are too confounded mean to take the paper, pay for it and read it like an honest man. Say you are too stingy to pay for that which yon borrow. This would come nearer the truth and it is written that "an honest confession doeth the heart good." You would cer­ tainly enjoy life better after having made such a confession. "A FARMER who knows just what he is talking about hits the nail on the head when he says nothing pays better than good roads. It costs something to secure them, but they are the arteries which connect city and country, along which the life current of business, pros­ perity, safety and solid comfort perpet­ ually flow. Bad roads full of chuckholes kill time, team and temper. Be sure then that money thus intelligently expended is wisely invested and sure to secure future results."

The rain came down in torrents and those who were so un­ fortunate as to be caught out thought for a time that another Johnstown disas­ ter was upon them. North and west of here the storm was even more severe, being accompanied by hail that did great damage, in many places ruining corn and small grain, breaking windows,^,etc. From Spring Grove comes reports of hailstones being picked up .that meas­ ured eight inches in circumference, while at Hebron they are reported as large as tleven inches. The amount of damage it hard to estimate, but it must have been immense. The damage by light­ ning was also considerable^ several horses afld cows being ̂ killed and; Windmills de­ molished in this vicinity. It was such ft storm as few care to see often. uncertain about the effects of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, can always be depended upon, and tjiat is pleasant and safe to take, 2 r> and 50 cent bottles. For 1 ̂ 'f J DR. MINCER, the eminent Optician of Detroit, was here on Monday, as per his advertisement, and we says because we know "wtwr«*>f we speak, those who use glasMB and did not call on him made a great mistake. He is a man nqjTto be confounded with the numerous quacks who have been here before, but a man who thoroughly understands his busi­ ness, having made th& eye a study for many years. As he says in his advertise­ ment. "He uses no instruments. . He fits the eye the first time. He uses pure crystal lenses.. He guarantees satisfac­ tion. He treats weak eyes successfully: He saves eyes injured by using inferior glases." And in short he makes every variety «of glasses. He has the finest assortment we ever saw, and he will charge you nothing to call and look them over. No one reaiiy values their eye sight until they lose it, and few know how rapidly they are losing it who are using inferior spectacles. The Doctor will be at the Riverside House again for a few hours on Saturday afternoon of this week, and all who wear glasses should at least call and see him. Read his advertisement in another column. WE give below a few of the many com­ plimentary notices given the PLAIN- DEALER by ottr brethren of the press, at the close of Volume 14. Our brother editors "do us proud." Here is what they say: Last week the McHenry PLATNDEALER entered upon the fifteenth year of its exis­ tence. May it continne to exnst until the end of existence.--Hampshire Register. The McHenry PLAINDEALER entered upon its fifteenth volume last week. Van Slyke publishes a live, aggressive Repub­ lican paper, and has made it a success in every respect. It is clean, well edited, handsomely printed, and a credit to McHenry. We congratulate our brother editor and sincerely hope that the star of his glory may never grow dim, or the shekels fail in his coffer.--Marengo Re­ publican. That excellent paper, the McHenry PLAINDEALER, closed the fourteenth year of its existence last week. Editor Van Slyke gets up a good, clean paper and we trust that he will continue to guide the destinies of the PLAINDEALER for three times fourteen jeem.---Harvard HeraJd. The McHenry PLAINDEALER came to us last week, No. 1, volume 15. Brother Van Slyke will p}ease accept our con­ gratulations in view of the fact that his excellent newspajjer shows such encour­ aging evidences of prosperity. It is one of our best exchanges.--Harranl lnde- iwndeut. By the McHenry PLAINDEALER of last week we notice that the Fourteenth Vol­ ume of that excellent journal has been completed. We have read the PLAIN- DEALER every week during the fourteen years of its publication, and would not think of doing without it now. We would congratulate Editor Van Slyke on his escape from trouble or injury all these years, but to do so would be to offer in­ sult to an honest journalist, since it would intimate that he was guilty but that his luck had saved him. We are firm in the belief that a conscientious editor need have no fears while faithfully performing his duty, and that he will always have the great majority of good people with him so long as he fearlessly does what he knows to be right. Such is the position of the PLAINDEALER before the reading public to-day, and we confi­ dently look toward the future of its suc- cess.--Richmond Gazette^ ."%• f""/Jfi, The Fair. ± . Nothing but bad weather can resist the success of the coming Fair--assurance from all quarters being most flattering. It is evident the people of McHenry County are aroused in the matter of placing the Fair further toward the ajex of grand yearly exhibitions. The dates coming so soon and nature doing her utmost to help us along, it is hoped no one will miss the opportunity of assist­ ing in the glorious work of enlarging the McHenry County Fair. We, as a county, have a right to feel the responsibility of their work, and each do his or her duty. A successful Fair means advance in your homes. It means encouragement in the breeding of beautiful animals. What is more it means a rich inheritance to your children and your children's children/ Have you looked at it in this light? If not do so. We sincerely hope that those who have not given the Fair part of their leisure time will do so. It will be rich in satisfaction of having done something toward the Fair of 1889.' A. S. WRIGHT, Secretary. A MOST eleborate picture and one which is attracting even larger audience to ' Bluebeard Jr." than heretofore, was added to that piece last Sunday evening. It Was the beginning of the 8th week, and the presentation of the 3rd and last edition. The novelty which has sprang into popular favor at oncfe is entitled "The Children's Heroes." It is a most unique procession of the chief characters of juvenile fiction. The cos­ tumes are most elegant, and the proper­ ties are quite as good as anything of the kind in the piece. Ala Baba and his donkey, Cinderella and the prince, with their attendants, footmen, etc., Jack the Giant Killer, Little Aleddin and the Magician, and a host of other children's favorites appear. There is a very clever minuet dance, accompanied by a superb chorus. This feature is concluded by the Old Woman who lived in a Shoe and her numerous children. That this will prove one of the most popular cards in "Bluebeard Jr." there is little doubt. The matinees have been crowded, and the (» Little Lord Flauteleroys, intro­ duced in the last act of the piece, receive quite as much attention as the ficticious personages above mentioned. Besides till tli is, a number of changes have been made in the comedy situations, and new musical members have been added. The piece will run for several weeks longer, and will no doubt enjoy even a larger degree of patronage than has been here­ tofore accorded it. The matinee prices as before, will be from 25. cents to f 1.00' Large parties of children are popular at the Wednesday and Saturday matinees.

Well they came and what they did the score will tell. Our boys played a good game considering the inducements to play ball, the hitting being sharp and safe, scoring twenty-five good healthy hits to ten scattering accidentals of the Hayseeds. Smith excelled in the batting, making two three-baggers, two doubles and one single. Morton's many hard drives were also a notable feature.
